(I have a nice 'install' target for cobalts here, but that only works there.
I guess I'll put that into htdocs now that the cobalt port uses Makefile.mips)
What's wrong; the initial SR value in pcb0 gets overwritten before
the first kthread_create1() is called. For a normal process which
has user mode it doesn't matter because proc_trampoline() makes
the process to have spl0 during exception return path to user mode,
however, kthreads stay in kernel mode mistakenly left in splhigh
condition. The trouble is visible as severe clock drifts when
system activity is high.
is created. System kthreads are mistakenly left splhigh state.
pcb0 has an initial SR value for spl0 condition which are expected to
be propagated to all of children

each vm_page structure. Add a VM_MDPAGE_INIT() macro to init this
data when pages are initialized by UVM. These macros are mandatory,
but ports may #define them to nothing if they are not needed/used.
This deprecates struct pmap_physseg. As a transitional measure,
allow a port to #define PMAP_PHYSSEG so that it can continue to
use it until its pmap is converted to use VM_MDPAGE_MEMBERS.
Use all this stuff to eliminate a lot of extra work in the Alpha
pmap module (it's smaller and faster now). Changes to other pmap
modules will follow.
to <sys/types.h> and <sys/stdint.h>.
* Add a new C99 <stdint.h> header, which provides integer types of
explicit width, related limits and integer constant macros.
* Extend <inttypes.h> to provide <stdint.h> definitions and format
macros for printf() and scanf().
* Add C99 strtoimax() and strtoumax() functions.
* Use the latter within scanf().
* Add C99 %j, %t and %z printf()/scanf() conversions for
intmax_t, pointer-type and size_t arguments.

These calls are relatively conservative. It may be possible to
optimize these a little more.
calling pmap_steal_memory() directly. On these platforms, since
uvm_pageboot_alloc() is a wrapper around pmap_steal_memory(), there
is no functional change. This is merely for API consistency.
which have pmap_steal_memory(). This is to reduce the API differences
between pmaps that implement pmap_steal_memory() and pmaps which do
not.
Note that pmap_steal_memory() needs to adjust *vstartp and/or
*vendp only if it used addresses within the range provided to UVM
via the pmap_virtual_space() call. I.e. it is not necessary to do
so in any current pmap_steal_memory() implementation.
call overhead is incurred as we start sprinkling pmap_update() calls
throughout the source tree (no pmaps currently defer operations, but
we are adding the infrastructure to allow them to do so).
when error is ERESTART. otherwise, user process will re-issue syscall
with broken system call number and get SIGSYS signal and terminate.

and link it directly to db_command_table[] so that it's not necessary
to do this at runtime. Make db_machine_command_table[] const on all ports.

- Use syscall_intern() to give a process a plain or fancy
syscall based on ktrace flags.
- Avoid copying from the trapframe into a local array as much
as possible.
Yields roughly 5% improvement on a 25MHz R3000 (DECstation 5000/200)
on a simple syscall benchmark.
There's still some work that can be done using __HAVE_MINIMAL_EMUL.
